Chapter 58: What is the Key to the City?
Kitchen, on the dining table.
"Damn, how did you find here?" said Hank, sipping his black coffee and flipping through the newspaper with the other.
Scarlet slowly pulled out a business card and put it on the table, "Should I call Miss Ash first?"
"Don't," Hank put down his coffee, "how much did those two bitches give you? I'll double it!"
"Miss Ehill said she'd pay 10 grams of cocaine if she found you," Scarlet played with his business card, and Hank frowned, "10 grams?
Scarlet made a gesture of "lend me the phone"
"Wait, wait!" Hank shouted again, "There's something to say, you're..."
"Detective, Scarlet" straightened his collar.
"Okay, Detective Scarlet, well, they let you find me and give you back 10 grams of cocaine, didn't they?" "Yes" "What did they tell you?" "You cheated on them, sold their new song to another record company, and ran away with the money" "Oh shit! Shit shit, grass, grass, grass!" Hank looked thrilled "They lied to you, Detective, they lied to you!"
Scarlet crossed her hands and placed them on top of her chin, "So what, I found out they were lying to me in the first place." Since there is a way to find you, and they know where you are going back, why don't they come to you themselves?" "Because they ・・・・・ you want to hear me start at the beginning?" Hank spread his hands out, "I'll tell you everything"
"Come on, I'll listen," Scarlet nodded.
Hank thought about it before he said, "That's how it went. Ash and Ge Sili, they are indeed singers, but in addition to the identity of singers, these two guys also have another identity, that is, ・・・・・killers"
Scarlet wasn't surprised, and he motioned for Hank to continue.
"They killed a terrible person, the mayor of Fallen Heaven City, and they actually killed him! Now, several bigwigs in the city are looking for them. Hank looked very excited, and Scarlet couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking for them?" "What are you doing?" Ha, you're so funny, of course you got the city key from them" "City key?" "Scarlet is even more confused, what is the city key?" "City key, that's something that only the mayor can have." That key can control the city's sewer operations. Don't you like it when you flush the toilet, become the toilet and rush you" "So, these big guys want to get this key, the key is in their hands?" "Whether they are there or not, anyway, they killed the mayor, where is the key if it is not with them?"
Scarlet suddenly laughed, and smiled very weirdly, "I think the key is really not in their hands, but ・・・・・ in your hands"
Hank was stunned, and then immediately said, "How could I be? How could I ・・・・・・?"
"As you said, they're not just singers, they're killers. So, who would their boss be?" Scarlet slapped his hand on the table, "If it's not you, then why are they looking for you?"
As he spoke, Scarlet looked around, "Twin fallen angels, why don't they dare to come to you?" they know where you are and how to find you, but they don't dare to come to you. Why is that?"
"This ・・・・・" Hank sweated profusely, "you listen to my explanation・・・・・"
"Although you seem to belong to the kind of dragon set that has no ability, but unfortunately, the people in this city can't judge by their appearance at all・・・・・・" Before Scarlet could finish speaking, a red figure pounced on Scarlet.
The golden butterflies scattered in all directions, blocking the red figure.
It was a chestnut-haired woman, hunched over the wall, the claws of her hands firmly embedded in the wall.
Like a cat? No, a leopard, I guess so.
The spots that appear on the maroon woman are the stripes of the steppe leopard.
"Damn!" Hank spat out a large cloud of slime from his mouth, and when he raised his hand, a flame barely canceled out the slime.
"Medusa!" Scarlet took a few steps back, and a blonde woman in a black off-the-shoulder jumpsuit appeared out of thin air.
Adult version of Medusa.
"Where did she pop up?" Hank was stunned, but now he couldn't help himself, and several writhing black arrows stabbed at him.
Hank barely dodged two black arrows, but the third shot him through, and he fell to the ground in agony, covering his wounds.
"Hank!" the leopard woman strained her hind feet, claws grabbing Medusa's abdomen.
"Hmm" Medusa didn't dodge, blood splashed, and a fireball was thrown at the leopard child.
Medusa covered her abdomen and squatted down, but her hands were not idle, and a black snake suddenly rushed towards the leopard children, who did not react for a while, and were bitten by the black snake.
"Die!" Medusa spat out the letter, and Scarlet immediately said, "Don't kill that Hank!"
Hank was surrounded by countless golden butterflies, and his wounds were still oozing blood.
"It's okay" Scarlet pressed Medusa's shoulder "Let me see, what's wrong?" "It's better for you not to look at it" Medusa looked very painful "My stomach has been cut, if I let go now, my intestines will flow out"
"Intestines ・・・・・ intestines?" was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Do you want me to help you press it?"
"No" Medusa slowly stood up, the little black snake quickly wrapped around her injured position, she put her hand on Scarlet's shoulder and said, "It's better for you to get stronger quickly, if it was me before, this kind of attack wouldn't hurt me at all"
"・・・・・That's right, yes, call and call" Scarlet directly diverted the topic
"Hello, Ahir, it's me and I'm me, Scarlet, you're coming to xx now, yes, yes, that's it, I've found the person you want, you come to inspect it, ah, hurry up, because he's probably going to die"
Less than ten minutes later, Ashel and Gasley break down the door, and as soon as they enter, they see Hank slumped on the floor and Scarlet sitting on the couch to the side.
"Oops, is there already one dead?" Grace kicked the body of the leopard child on the ground.
"Good job! I can't see that the little brother is quite capable~ I, happy, happy~" Ahir threw a small package to Scarlet.
The title page says "Mission complete, reward 10 grams of cocaine." ”
"Since it's the main quest, then it shouldn't end like this" Scarlet looked at the two, and Ash kicked Hank, who was lying on the ground, "Where's the thing?"
"Hmph, I don't know," Hank spat at the ground, "you two bitches ・・・・・"
"Click" a silver-white pistol aimed at Hank's head, "I don't recommend helping you make a few more holes in your face"
"Bitch!" Although Hank was a little unwilling, he still compromised, "The thing is not here, I was originally a ・・・・・ to help people" "Is there a boss behind the boss?" sad ~" Ge Sili shook her head, "But I'm almost about to find out who it is" "Huh, do you know who it is?" Ash asked in surprise, "You didn't tell me!" "Isn't it undecided?" Ge Sili said indifferently, "Do you think I'm the same as you?"
"It's better than your sweet-toothed head!" Grace looked at Hank and said, "Name that guy, at least it will give you a good time"
"He's ・・・・・ doom・・・・・" Before Hank could finish speaking, a green light hit Hank, who twitched a few times before he stopped moving.
"Who is it!" Scarlet jumped up as if she had been pricked in the ass by a needle, and a figure flashed through the window, and Scarlet was about to chase it, but Eihil was faster, and she raised her hand to shoot, and the window shards were scattered.
"Slipped," Grace said, without looking, "Ashel, you're too slow," "Didn't I react?" Eshil defended himself, "Did that guy be ambushed in the first place?"
Scarlet immediately said, "Impossible, when I came, there were only two people here,
At the same time, he used a psychic connection, 'Is this going on?' I didn't feel anyone approaching at all!, Beato, what about you?'
"I didn't either, that attack, it should be a long-range attack" Beador replied, "Judging by the trajectory of the energy, it is estimated that the attack was launched from 500 meters away."
"Ranged attacks, I hate that," Scarlet whispered.
"Alright, now we should ・・・・・" Ashel put away his pistol and hesitated for a moment before he said, "Well, is there anything else I can help with?"
"Maybe, no need," Ge Sili waved her hand, "Mr. Detective, don't you have any questions you want to ask?"
"Yes, yes, but I think it's better not to be nosy・・・・・" Scarlet touched his chin, "But, I asked, will you answer?"
Gasley smiled, and so did Ashel.
"Well, do you want to say?" Gasley tilted her head to look at Ahir, who tapped her forehead with her finger, "Well, being able to make Hank this virtuous shows that he still has some ability." At least, that leopard girl is not easy to deal with・・・・・Hey, do you want to do a big job with us?"
